Moscow claims control of eastern Ukrainian city
The Russian forces announced that they have gained full control over the city of Kostiantynivka in eastern Ukraine, which is considered a fortified stronghold for Ukrainian forces and is situated along a strategic axis extending the distance between Kyiv's troops and major cities in the Donbas region. President Vladimir Putin confirmed that controlling the city is of "great strategic importance," indicating that Russian forces are now conducting sweep and clearance operations against Ukrainian soldiers stationed there. Kostiantynivka is one of the last obstacles to gaining control of Kramatorsk and Sloviansk, as Russia continues to expand its dominance over the entire Luhansk region.
